hi
i set init=/sbin/sh in the boot arguments and able to start the
android shell. then i start the init script. i see 'A N D R O I D _ '
screen, but when i do logcat i see that system is trying to load some
services like dbus etc. but unable to start properly. when i see /dev
contents, its all empty still. i believe its the job of init script to
create device nodes in /dev directory (correct me if i m wrong). am i
missing any steps here. please clarify.

thanks
shivap
